Whispering Winds of Apple Valley offers Assisted Living and Memory Care, enabling residents to remain in one setting even as needs change. The community is equipped to support people who wander at any time of day, manage combative behaviors, provide wound care, administer oxygen, and accommodate special diets. Staff can also work with residents under 60 and those who manage diabetes by oral medication or insulin injections. Advanced dementia conditions are accepted, so families who need a secure, clinically focused memory program will find a fit here.
Clinical coverage is reinforced by an RN or LPN on staff, background-checked team members, and an awake night shift. Safety measures include 24-hour staffing, fenced outdoor areas, alarmed doors, pull-cord and PERS alert systems. On-site services bring podiatry, therapy space, and support for psychiatric diagnoses directly to residents, limiting outside trips. Full assistance is available for bathing, dressing, eating, and toileting, and the transfer spectrum ranges from standby help and walker use to two-person or Hoyer-lift transfers for bed-bound residents.
Apartments may feature private bathrooms, kitchenettes, individual climate controls, and cable service, and residents can personalize spaces with paint or décor; however, not every unit includes all of these options. Regular housekeeping and scheduled laundry are provided, and for those living more independently, housekeeping and laundry services can be arranged under an Independent Living plan.
Dining offers both set menus and made-to-order choices, with snacks always on hand. Meals can be taken in the main dining room, in a private room for family visits, or delivered to the apartment when preferred. The culinary team manages diet modifications such as mechanical-chopped, puréed, thickened-liquid, vegetarian, and other physician-ordered plans to support specific health goals.
Residents have access to parking, wheelchair-accessible common areas, and outdoor smoking areas. Pets are allowed; it’s a good idea to check with the community during your visit to see if your pet will be allowed. Amenities include a barber/beauty shop, exercise room, movie room, wellness center, internet access, communal gardens, on-site religious services, concierge desk, library, and various interest clubs. Transportation options cover scheduled shuttle service for medical appointments and proximity to public transit.
